I have an issue. The truck has a 12 inch lift. It has never shifted this way before until now. I t will shift perfect into2nd gear. Then the rpm's will rise to 4000, then shift real hard into 3rd gear. Everything else runs great. Any ideas?

I have reading up on this in the reapir manual i have. What do you think of the EEC. Since the EEC calculates speed and load conditions, then commands the actuators within the transmission to intiate shift. I have a 3 speed with overdrive transmission. Like i said the transmission shifts only hard in 3rd gear. I will check the vacuum modulator.
